Kosta Browne Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir 2012

$7499

Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir from Kosta Browne speaks in the language of precision—dark red cherry, plum, new leather, and mint blossom balanced against spice and floral perfume. The 2012 vintage has developed gracefully over a dozen years, revealing the site's cool-climate elegance. Born from vineyards farmed by two legendary families—Pisoni and Franscioni—this wine captures the region's breezy minerality and dark fruit intensity with surprising grace.

Antonio Galloni

90 points

"The 2012 Pinot Noir (Santa Lucia Highlands) is the most overt of the appellation wines. Dark red cherry, plum, spice, new leather and mint blossom as this textured Pinot show off its hugely inviting personality." —Antonio Galloni

Robert Parker

92 points

"A beautiful effort that certainly competes with the single-vineyard releases, the 2012 Pinot Noir Santa Lucia Highlands offers up a gorgeous bouquet of black cherries, black raspberry, wild herbs, rose petal and Asian spice to go with a medium-bodied, layered, balanced and rich palate feel. Rounded, with solid richness and upfront fruit, this knockout Pinot Noir will drink nicely for over a decade." —Jeb Dunnuck

Wine Spectator

91 points

"Presents a rich, powerful display of blackberry, raspberry, spice and floral scents, with touches of smoky oak, anise and dusty earth and a long, persistent finish."
